Welcome to the Love Your Lens Blog
If you want to take better photos — whether with your camera, your phone or in Lightroom — you’re in the right place. This blog is packed with simple, practical tips for beginners and improvers, plus plenty of food photography advice and creative ideas to try at home.
I’ve taught photography for over 17 years, and my aim is always the same: to help you feel more confident, less overwhelmed and excited to pick up your camera. Have a browse, learn something new, and start taking photos you love.
